Innovative Roofing Solutions for a Middle School in Denver
UG Group (formerly 2WR+ Partners) partnered with Denver Public Schools to complete a 38,120 sq. ft. roofing project at Grant Middle School, a well-established middle school in Denver. With rising material and labor costs, DPS needed a cost-effective and durable solution. UG Group developed a strategic approach, ensuring the project met budget constraints while enhancing longevity and efficiency.
Custom Roofing Upgrades for Grant Middle School
The roofing project involved 12 separate areas across the structure. To maximize durability and cost savings, UG Group implemented a mix of EPDM and 4-Ply Built-Up Roofing Systems. This combination provided strong weather resistance, improved insulation, and long-term performance, reducing maintenance needs for the school. By focusing on innovative materials, UG Group ensured the roofing system would offer protection and energy efficiency for years to come.
Addressing Cost Challenges with Strategic Planning
During the design phase, rising costs posed a significant challenge. UG Group worked closely with Denver Public Schools to identify cost-saving alternatives while maintaining high-quality standards. By evaluating different roofing materials and installation techniques, our team developed a budget-conscious solution that met all requirements. Additionally, our proactive approach helped DPS avoid costly delays, ensuring the project stayed on track without exceeding budget expectations.
Seamless Execution for a Long-Lasting Solution
A major focus of this project was ensuring minimal disruption to school operations. UG Group scheduled work efficiently, allowing classes and school activities to continue as planned. Our team coordinated logistics carefully, ensuring safety and smooth execution from start to finish. These efforts contributed to the project’s on-time and within-budget completion, with zero change orders, a significant achievement in a market facing escalating material costs.
